Steve Martin has looked 57 years old for the past thirty years.

[@Steaminlidz]

In the 1989 movie ‘Parenthood’, Steve Martin’s character Gil is supposed to be 35. (At the time of release, he was actually 44). He did however look 57.

Lorne Michaels and Conan O'Brian taking a walk and spontaneously knocking on Steve Martin's door blows my mind

[@maddymud]

and the art being loaned out to the Louvre

[@danmagoo]

Marty tells a very different story in his book ("I Must Say") about how the 2-man show started. He wrote that when his wife died (they'd been together for a long time, and the 2 couples had vacationed together for years), Steve felt that Marty had been moping around long enough and needed to work, so Steve came up with the idea of the 2-man show and bulldozed Marty into doing it, to cheer him up. According to Marty's book, Steve sacrificed some big movie money (his film career was hot at the time), in order to help his friend get over his grief. But I guess that would have been a downer of a story to tell Conan.

[@raggededge82]

it's certainly possible that both stories are true. perhaps the interview piece was just a catalyst to them seeing that people loved their chemistry

[@dreapress1227]

[@dlxmarks]

Steve Martin has met a lot of people over his long life and not immediately realizing that Andy meant Andy Richter is understandable.

[@natatatt]

I love their comedic abilities but especially love just watching 2 such genuine friends clearly enjoying each others company.

[@raggededge82]

there's many funny people but a true comedic duo like Martin and Lewis or Abbott and Costello is something the world will never have enough of. Conan and Andy or Dave and Paul are funny together but it's very clearly a comic and sidekick dynamic as opposed to Steve and Marty who are both stars in their own rights

[@SteveBluescemi]

Martin Short's immediate launch into a Rain Man impression killed me

[@nikkiko37]

I listened to the podcast yesterday but like others, I could listen to anything that has Steve Martin Short any time. Dana Carvey came up with this new name for them on his podcast. But MAN Martin Short is a genius for burns/insults. How does he just get them so fast even at his age. Wow, that's amazing!!

[@ericwilliams1031]

These two men are a treasure. Absolutely hilarious. Straight up comedy gold.

[@Bonzi_Buddy]

It is a shame they couldn't have done a follow up to the Three Amigos. Could have been hilarious... of course there is the third required person who is notoriously bad to work with. Also, the genius behind the movie was murdered by his wife. Without his involvement, it couldn't have been the same. These two were the true stars of this movie though... their interaction when he gets shot by El Guapo, singing my little buttercup, etc. Chevy Chase was in the background when these two were on.

[@jeremymcinturff985]

Steve's comedic timing is second to none. Lol

[@Metjammer]

It's pretty clear he's not a very nice person. Very lucky to have Martin Short take him by the hand...

So glad my dad was a fan early SNL and turned me onto these two as a kid. Such gems.

[@whirlhoof5117]

Not that you asked 😜 but for me I was around 11 years old and Three Amigos had just come out 😂😂😂 . Still in my top 5 faves and my 22 year old son loves it as well.

[@MarvinMonroe]

I was born Feb 1979 and Three Amigos is one of the first movies I really clearly remember seeing in the theater. There are several others that also came out in late 1986 that I remember seeing. Star Trek IV, Little Shop of Horrors. And I just always assumed Three Amigos was a big hit because my little sister and parents and I loved it and always quoted it and tons of kids all through high school and college quoted it. Guess it was just more of a VHS thing and now that we are old it's getting more respect

Well the title of the clip you described honours Steve Martin as the senior talent, so clearly Conan & his team revere him. His name is mentioned first. Conan describes being awe struck and intimidated by meeting Martin. I do hate it when interviewers overstep the mark but here you've got 3 comedians reminiscing and interrupting one another is inevitable.
